– On last night’s WWE 205 Live, Jake Atlast got the victory over Tony Nese. However, after the match, Nese attacked Atlas with the running knee and berated Atlas as a rookie and a punk. Following 205 Live, Atlas responded to Nese’s post-match attack with the following:
“This is exactly what I’m talking about. Everyone here is such a sore loser. They can’t take defeat well! How are you going to hold division, how are you going to hold a brand if you can’t even *seethes* Tony, you may have gotten the last laugh, but when you look into my eyes, I want you to know something. This is not the end for me, OK? I beat you! And I’m going to continue doing everything I can to win and get to the top of 205 Live and the Cruiserweight division because like I said before, the main goal is to become champion, and that’s exactly what I’m set out to do.”
